BARCA’S AUBAMEYANG ATTACKED BY ARMED GANG AT HOME
Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang was assaulted as an armed gang equipped with iron bars targeted the Barcelona striker’s house on Monday, the club have confirmed.
Aubameyang and his wife were handcuffed and restrained during the burglary, but according to club sources, neither suffered serious injuries.
Early on Monday morning, burglars broke into Aubameyang’s home in Castelldefels, a suburb of Barcelona, where he resides with his wife and two kids.
Lionel Messi and Luis Suarez, former stars of Barcelona, nevertheless own homes that are roughly 200 metres away from the house. Both players have private security services to protect their residences.
Aubameyang, 33, had just arrived home following Sunday’s 4-0 victory for Barcelona over Real Valladolid, where he was an unused substitute.
Sources confirmed the gang forced him to unlock a safe that contained jewels and other expensive items, which they then stole.
According to police sources, the gang has not yet been apprehended.
Just last week, Aubameyang’s teammate Robert Lewandowski had his watch, worth €70,000, stolen from his car as he arrived for training at Barca’s Ciutat Esportiva base.
